That’s the kind of answer people like to give when they just don’t want to do anything to fix it. Who cares if it’s a complex problem, we have really smart people in the world. We can bang this out.
There’s no reason to haggle over details though because we’re not the people in that room haggling over details. All we need to do is continue to point out that there is a problem and that we want our representatives and scientists who do studies on housing to fix it.

I disagree, it’s the details that will bite you on the ass… until those people have haggled over the details we realistically have no idea how many up or downsides there would be.
I agree it’s a problem and I agree the current landlord situation is very likely contributing but removing that component by itself I believe is likely to cause all manner of problems… landlords are currently parasiting (is that a word?) off a system that’s broken… my view is if you fix the system they won’t be able to parasite on it.
